No change at number 10

Darren McCaffrey ✔ @DMcCaffreySKY
NEW: No.10 insistent that plans for UK #StateVisit by @realDonaldTrump remain in place despite calls for it to be postponed or cancelled.
12:25 PM - 29 Jan 2017

I admit I was wrong about one thing - I thought Trump was a batshit crazy narcissist and far right, but not actually fascist (unlike some of his supporters) - but it turns out he is a batshit crazy narcissist who is a full-on fascist.

Well we can't make him not come but he doesn't need to be made to feel welcome does he?

I'm sure there will be protests but am concerned about the security and special powers that are likely to be brought into measure pre-visit.

Government still saying despite petition the state visit will go ahead. Oh, this will be interesting.

Trump just posted on twitter on the Flynn Jr argument - childish tweet at the CNN journalist.

Any dates yet?

@jaketapper @mflynnJR Ha ha ha Jake Tapper just got schloonged

oh wait. THAT is not his account. Nevermind. Notice the l missing in real...

What does that even mean? Is it autocorrect?

Well if enough people sign the petition, we'll have to see whether TM thinks the Will of the People is the sacred and infallible directive of the most extreme interpretation, as it is for Hard Brexit.

Annoying. Troll page set up exactly the same as Trump. And god knows when someone acts shitty and looks like his account, who'd question it?

Trump has again attacked the NY Times in a tweet

This is REALLY worrying. They'll never finish the job, and people will be cheering him for this. Then the retaliatory attacks will be begin, won't they?

It's a very sad state of affairs when we can't distinguish between the troll twitter of the President and the real one.

There is also going to be an emergency protest in Edinburgh tomorrow for those of you up that way

I think if Trump does come here he should be made to feel very unwelcome.

However I can't shake the feeling that there is an undercurrent of 'good on him' that's running trough our own country.

The media and sm are up in as about it (like they were on brexit) but actually out and about I'm hearing murmurs of 'yeah, serves those muslims right.'

I've never left a post office quite so quickly.

At some point, people are going to be on the wrong side of history.

Every story that shows al-queda killed will reinforce Trump's support base.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-38787239?ocid=socialflow_twitter

First they came for the Muslims
Then they came for the LGBT
Then...

When he's done with al queda, he will then internalise... who will be next LGBT... women... disabled....

The US is sharply divided. And if he says he has taken out the al-queda, what will his justification then be for keeping the muslims out? because he will, you know....

The real Trump has just tweeted this mature and insightful nugget

"Somebody with aptitude and conviction should buy the FAKE NEWS and failing @nytimes and either run it correctly or let it fold with dignity!"

GingerIvy I imagine anyone who is not a straight, white, Christian/atheist, rich, able bodied, and a man will be in the firing line.

I think France will be demanding the Statue of Liberty back

The new York times has an article about trump supporters and how they are supportive of what he is doing. It make for interesting is disturbing reading. Some people just don't give a shit about anyone except themselves.
